Ragman 2.0 8A+ by Tabitha Eckfeld

Tabitha Eckfeld, who the last five weeks has done three 8A's, has done her first 8A+, Ragman 2.0 in Silvretta. Full video on Insta. The spotter holds the crash pad so the sun does not get into Tabitha's eyes.

"I am very happy that I can climb hard boulders again. I've been suffering from really bad chest tension for a year. So I had to do long backroll sessions several times a week. Now it's getting better and I think this full-body regeneration made me stronger. Stronger than without my illnesses and normal training."

What was that Ninja thing I found by Googling you?
I really like Ninja. I was the best woman in 2018. But I crashed my knee badly in the competition. So I could not climb for 2 months. So I stoped ninja slowly. Climbing was more important to me. That's a bit sad. I really love Ninja warrior. But I don't want to get injured again..😅 But climbing and Ninja are a good training combination.
